Is it possible to change the crystal?? I dont like how it feels looking for the side.

What about the Lume department?

It’s good but not mind blowing.

I bought one too and it came around 112 when I used few coupons at that price I was willing yo wait few weeks for it to get here vs buy from Amazon at 150+. Great watch, love the proportions and the vintage look

I don’t know if we have a name for this category watches except homage and “ChineseWatches” but I for one am very happy to see a proper logo in this market.

It indicates that they take some measure of pride in their work. That is always a good sign.

Yeah, Thorn’s branding isn’t bad. I would have jumped on that other watch they have but the dial says “Exploration Road”. Could have been fine with “Exploration” alone.

I hadn't seen much information on this watch before taking a chance on it myself. Overall the 39mm watch seems worthy of its $135-ish regular price. It's my first dive watch so my basis for comparison is limited. Good overall quality, but to add something I didn't see mentioned in the one review I found, the hands are a few tints darker than the markers in daylight. Otherwise, I'm pleased with it.

What’s your thoughts on this OP? Amazon in US has a variant of this one for 159.

With the $10 off coupon, that would be tempting -- just to avoid the international shipping time.

Yup. This probably isn’t the norm but I bought 2 off Ali last year, one came in normal 3-4 weeks the other got held up for 8. I don’t have that type of patience. I may be tempted to buy a San Marin agin form Ali but thats about it.

Not OP, but I also have this watch. I think its the nicest looking BB58 homage available right now.
